This easy keto egg roll in a bowl recipe is great for an healthy dinner option that has super easy clean up after. Made in only one pan and in under 30 minutes with the option of ground pork or beef. Having a simple Asian style meal that’s low carb, gluten free and delicious pleases everyone!
I just bought a wok and I am cooking every Asian inspired dish I can. And, recreating old ones might I add. Recently, I created a chicken cabbage stir fry that was divine. My girlfriend misses egg rolls so I thought let’s remove the wonton. Surprisingly, this is already a thing. To change the pace a little I topped mine with a creamy sriracha sauce that compliments the entire dish!
Are Egg Rolls Keto
Although, egg roll wrappers or wontons are very thin and small in size they are not keto friendly. Yes, I love the crispy outside as well but the truth is the wrapper just brings way to man carbs for one dish out of the day. But, in this dish you get way more filling with all of the flavor.
What To Serve With Egg Roll In A Bowl
This is a one dish meal. There are veggies and protein with added fat from the meat. A well rounded dish you don’t have to add anything with. But, a light dessert such as a peanut butter or chocolate mousse. Maybe even a quick mug cake will do. I find this recipe filling on its own.
How Many Carbs In An Egg Roll
Due to the lack of an egg roll wrapper the carbs are extremely low. With a bag of 365 organic cole slaw mix from Whole Foods there are only 5g net carbs in this recipe. Most bags you come across with have the dressing included but you can skip that. The nutrition label can confuse you due to this, so be careful.
How To Make Keto Egg Roll In A Bowl
To start, lay out all of your ingredients. This meal doesn’t take long to make and is made in one pan. Taking 5 minutes to lay everything out will make things far easier for you.
In a frying pan or wok on high heat add in ground pork. Add in salt, white pepper and minced garlic to season meat. Cook pork all the way before going to next step.
Next, pour in cole slaw mix. Stir the mix into the ground meat and let it cook down just a little. Now, add in five spice seasoning, chopped green onions, rice vinegar and coconut aminos. Continue cooking until veggies are soft and cooked. Remove from heat, then serve.
Helpful Recipe Tips
- Grated ginger, I like to include fresh ginger in the recipe and I highly recommend it. You’ll add this while the ground pork is cooking. I wouldn’t grate anything over one tablespoon. If you’d like to add in granulated ginger use 1/2 teaspoon.
- Add in sesame oil at the end. Typically the oil is added at the end. I personally cook with animal fat over anything but any oil is fine for cooking. Garnishing with the sesame oil is recommended.
- For the green onion, chop up the white area to cook with then garnish with the green stalks after cooking.
